♪ ♪ >> harris: well hello this is "outnumbered" i'm harris faulkner with my cohost, emily compagno also joining us carley shimkus, kennedy, and raymond arroyo. it's going to be good. we begin with new and significant questions being raised about the classified documents discovered at the private office locked in the closet that was once used by president biden. according to reports the documents include u.s. intelligence memos and briefing materials covering topics which
9:01 am
included ukraine, iran, and the united kingdom. among them ten with classified markings between 2015-2016, some labeled top-secret the highest level of classification, they were discovered on november 2nd but of course that would have been six days before an election, the midterms. why are we only learning about it now? by the way they turned them over the next day, november 3rd. a lot of people knew, but not the american public. why were they in fact at the penn biden center to begin with? after ignoring questions about the scandal, the president finally broke silence yesterday. >> people know i take classified documents and classified information seriously. i was briefed about this discovery and surprised to learn there were any government records taken there to that office. but i don't know what is in the documents. i have turned over the boxes, they have turned over the boxes
9:02 am
to the archives and we are cooperating fully. cooperating fully with the review. >> harris: it seems the president and his defenders on the left are in the media and quickly trying to downplay the scandal by drawing distinctions between this instance and former president donald trump's classihandling of classified materials. were his actions illegal or not? i will come to emily on that because i ask you all things. [laughter] what do you say about this? because he says he has been legally told not to ask what is in the documents is that ford plausible deniability? why wouldn't he know? >> emily: the issue is this is a strict liability crime like speeding, it doesn't matter if you meant to. it doesn't matter what you what your justification was, you speed to get a ticket. this a strict liability and i think that's why it's so disheartening frankly as an american to see the spin the
9:03 am
media is putting on this as well as his teammates and his administration saying while the difference here between here and president trump is it was just a small amount and it's what we did afterward. the fact we immediately turned it over and we promised to comply. that has li demo zero bearings r the yard classified documents in an insecure location and that flies in the face as well of the apologist comments we got in the prior administration from the democrats who said well, yes, no one is above the law, right? we played clips of that both then speaker pelosi, and hillary clinton adamantly maintaining it doesn't matter your intent, it doesn't matter how you explain it away. the indicator was back in august where biden says it depends on my own bald it depends on how secure that location is. and the nature of the documents buried for the american people and national security what matters is whether it was
9:04 am
classified whether a secure and thoughts whether or not it's illegal so girl and has a big task now. >> harris: and i wrote that down strict liability crime, it is becoming clearer now why that is so important. because of what was in the documents. last hour on the faulkner focus i asked florida congressman brian masse about what exactly is at stake given the report were reported contents of those because of my documents? watch. >> foreign intelligence papers are among that classified document badge they call it a small batch from biden's team. what does that mean going forward? places like iran and ukraine mentioned in those papers? >> it means there is very potentially may be individuals that have been compromised. there are sources and methods that have potentially been compromised. information we didn't want them to know we had that could be compromised. those are potential stakes and with an infinite amount of others but it is an interesting
9:05 am
instance talking about that type of information and the people we have on the ground around the globe. >> harris: raymond? >> raymond: i listened to this interview today which was excellent. it takes your breath away because it is not only what these documents were, classified intelligence, but the time that they cover. and for the record they cover the overthrow of the ukrainian president, the ukrainian new deal, and hunter biden going to work for burisma that ukrainian energy concern. remember the lawyer who found it buried deep in an article i read this morning, a lawyer who found this found these classified documents at the penn biden center in a document envelope marked personal files. that's where the ten -- and it was amid biden's funeral preparations another thing so i have to tell you. what i listen to this i covered hillary clinton when all of those emails on her server popped up.
9:06 am
i remember clinton shoving documents down their pants at the national archives. member that back in the day? >> harris: i didn't robe that. >> raymond: with sandy berger who went in and shove documents into his pants so this is like a jurassic park review. the data source are doing the same things, our lack of outrage tends to drop but it shouldn't. this is a major national security crisis in some ways. more than the trump situation. those documents were packed by the national archives and sent to mar-a-lago. someone in the biden administration or close to him packed these documents and stored them at this private office. that is a bigger deal. >> harris: you gave us a lot to work with there, kennedy i want to talk about the university append. and during the trump presidency the treasurer, i mean the secretary of education was looking at how much money these universities were getting by putting up centers may be in people's names. if your name was biden, you
9:07 am
could raise a lot of money for that center. so it is interesting. maybe he doesn't member everything that was in there but these are in a locked closet -- >> kennedy: were they? the president doesn't know. he was like it was a cabinet, maybe a locker, maybe a locked closet. what was most problematic for me, a couple of things about the quid pro quo with pen. a couple things are problematic the president didn't know what was in there which means he didn't put the matter. that means someone else he doesn't know who was handling top-secret classified information. at what point? he doesn't know. also if he doesn't know what was in there or who put them there he doesn't know who had access to. there is no way we will know he will give into this rational ignorance. the layers are telling him not to ask what's in those documents. so he has kept those things, what else is there in what other closets? what other information is out there the president doesn't know about? it's been handled by god knows
9:08 am
who. also in terms of pen, he made over a million dollars from 2017-2019 where he did nine appearances with students and coincidentally, the president of the university became the ambassador to germany! that's so weird! such an incredible coincidence. >> harris: not just happen though right? >> kennedy: yes. >> carley: obviously a big fan of bavaria. that's what we call the slums. one of the things i think is most notable is the timing of all of this. getting to know the timeline very well now. these documents are found six days before midterm elections and we know that president biden's lawyers reported to the national archives immediately. >> harris: the next day. >> carley: what is a must have a question mark the national archives are supposed to report this to the oversight committee, the house oversight committee. according to james comer that never happened. i asked him to think that was politically motivated? and he says it sure seems that
9:09 am
way. now we are dealing with a couple of situations right before elections, having to do with the bidens or the biden family that the american people don't know. first of course it was the hunter biden laptop and now this. there were these two big things taking place before elections and it's cutting both ways towards democrats and the bidens. i think it's very interesting whether president biden knew about these documents or not, there are bad things involved with both scenarios. if he didn't know about them, that's almost worse former president trump knowing exactly where his documents are, agreeing with national archives to put them under lock and key, at least knowing they were around. if president biden didn't know, what else does he not know? >> harris: i don't remember. >> carley: but listen, if he did know, we are talking about a classification above top-secret with irani in documents related to iran and also ukraine and that goes back to hunter biden. >> raymond: and the major figures at penn biden at the
9:10 am
center are now your secretary of state, many of the high-ranking white house officials. somebody knows who put this in the personal file. >> harris: and its awful reaction to say oh, my goodness i was just a coincidence we know in politics there are very few coincidences. there's a whole lot of quid pro quo. so we will have to see what this was. and what he can remember. if he has ever asked. okay let's move. the latest air travel mass after the faa grounded all flights nationwide this morning due to a system outage. plus the new scrutiny transportation scrutiny pete buttigieg is facing with r travel. and retirement savings. with voya, considering all your financial choices together... can help you be better prepared for unexpected events. voya. well planned. well invested.
9:11 am
9:15 am
b2 ar travel is gradually resuming at airports after a commuter safety system went down grounding all flights in the u.s. earlier this morning. today's travel mass another reminder of how painful flying can be. travelers these days are seeing more cancellations and are experiencing longer wait times at security while paying higher prices for airfare and on top of this topic u.s. airlines reported a big uptick last year in mishandled luggage which you are probably paying extra for in the first place. meanwhile, the man tasked with keeping transportation running smoothly the boy pete buttigieg is facing controversy of his own, they learned that he took a government jet to new york city back in april for a radio interview and two brief meetings before jetting back to d.c. hours later periods one of those meetings was with the president of the acl w u.
9:16 am
not only are our tax dollars paying for this but frankly i think it's pretty safe to say he is not doing his job very well. >> kennedy: no. i a kind of almost feel bad for pete buttigieg because he has had transportation prices, crisis after crisis which doesn't usually happen with the secretary of transpiration. most people don't know who that even is. but it has literally been one thing after another and the biggest ones have involved the airlines. you know he is one of those people who talks a big game like i've been on the phone with them and were really working this out, but he never does anything, never addresses this mysterious root causes we hear so much about from the administration but also has the gall to lecture us on going green and making sacrifices and riding his bike for a couple of blocks like a brave eco-warrior. then at the same time he has taken a private jet to new york. last i checked there's about 1700 flights from d.c. to
9:17 am
new york they even call them shuttles. they're not even planes, their flying buses. he could get on one of those and help save the planet but apparently he hates it per the earth. >> emily: and here's the thing he touted his leadership and including the president and a newly resurfaced campaign add land bashing his lack of experience opined you were in charge of transportation, correct me if i'm wrong bless them every u.s. flight was grounded was 9/11. it happens under his watch. i don't think it's coincidence, i don't think the stars were in a certain place. i think he is unable to perform his duties and should either resign or get with the program. >> harris: look we're just number four on the hopscotch map. seriously. he is just jumping through. he just wants to get to the top. he literally wants to get to the top. i mean does anybody have any doubts that this man doesn't want to run for president again? i mean that's how he is acting.
9:18 am
if you were and it would look like leadership and accountability and you would get goo on your shoe. you will not actually get on a plane where the public is flying at this point, you know he has to take a private flight because we have a lot of questions as the public and as journalists. so i'm not surprised by his reaction and all of this. i'm disappointed in all of it, but we are number four on the hopscotch map. >> raymond: you blame joe biden for putting them in this position. this man's travel experience come his transportation experience was mayor of south bend. i had a kid who went to notre dame, his big introduction was lime scooters which the locals threw into the river. that was his transportation initiative. okay? it was a complete bomb. we make an transportation secretary entering southwest software and computer crash, this guy was out there trashing them saying how dare they? they need to update systems. hello, now the government system goes up and he is making phone calls and checking on it.
9:19 am
i'm sorry, he wasn't ready for prime time, and every time we see a crisis, pete buttigieg proves he wasn't ready for prime time or that advancement. >> emily: that's a point and carly i think he has a servant start in your very generous, raiment, i am less generous than he is. >> raymond: that was generosity? >> emily: render the whole railroad union debacle where people who's really important needs from the line, where was pete? i think he was in portugal. i would've loved to be there on the beach too, buddy, but that's what happens when you get appointed to a position like that. to roll up your sleeves and you work in concert with the american people. yes he is ill-equipped, but you can also rise to the occasion. he could have met that challenge because if he's trying to demonstrate a presidential quality i haven't seen anybody. >> harris: he didn't do it with the supply chain crisis. >> carley: that is right and to kennedys .2 all of the transportation disasters on his watch, everyone knows who the transmission secretary is and we
9:20 am
shouldn't. it's one of those positions where you shouldn't know who the person is. when it comes to his private jet usage, though, if you are a member of the of administration that is trying to ban gas does because of climate change, maybe practice personal self-awareness and skip the private jet flight. in eberly works out that way. this situation that unfolds this morning, i feel so bad for everybody at the airport. you know this is going to have that trickle-down effect. it's going to be the flights in the morning will impact the afternoon flights in the nighttime flights. and it affected the system that advises pilots on certain things that could be happening in the air, flocks of birds even subbing like a military exercise or a missile strike that went down, so now the question is where did all of the billions of dollars go in the infrastructure bill? because we are working apparently with an antiquated system here and that needs to be updated. >> harris: that's part of why my first inclination when i
9:21 am
learned about this is we need an independent transparent investigation on why this is happening very wheat we have had several officials at top levels including the president of the united states and secretary buttigieg say today would they don't know why this happened. so they wanted to reassure us it wasn't a cyber attack and i appreciate that. bringing us to a full-grown stop for the first time since 9/11 as emily pointed out, that is problematic. that means could it happen again? so the president has tasked pete buttigieg and his team to investigate this. that is like kennedy you and i going out and borrowing some girlfriends shoes and running them and i put you in charge of investigating me and i investigate you. right? [laughter] over cocktails, exactly. so i do think this is critical enough and this has happened within airline, not the same as something similar with technology doing a role and accountability necessary for all of this.
9:22 am
maybe we have somebody outside the loop. take a look. >> raymond: particularly when it is impacting commerce and travel for an entire day, how many -- >> harris: and safety there. >> emily: this entire system is very vulnerable, we know t this. it makes me scared why it's the government that then looks into it and has oversight because to me the largest hemorrhage of finances and common sense would be the government. especially this one under the submits ration. coming up, as thousands of migrants cross into the country illegally, the mexican president will tell mike praises biden for not adding one more inch to the border wall. more on that next.
9:23 am
my a1c stayed here, it needed to be here. ray's a1c is down with rybelsus®. i'm down with rybelsus®. my a1c is down with rybelsus®. in a clinical study, once-daily rybelsus® significantly lowered a1c better than a leading branded pill. in the same study, people taking rybelsus® lost more weight. rybelsus® isn't for people with type 1 diabetes.
9:24 am
don't take rybelsus® if you or your family ever had medullary thyroid cancer, or have multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, or if allergic to it. stop rybelsus® and get medical help right away if you get a lump or swelling in your neck, severe stomach pain, or an allergic reaction. serious side effects may include pancreatitis. gallbladder problems may occur. tell your provider about vision problems or changes. taking rybelsus® with a sulfonylurea or insulin increases low blood sugar risk. side effects like nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea may lead to dehydration, which may worsen kidney problems. need to get your a1c down? you may pay as little as $10 per prescription.
9:26 am
i'll remember that chapter of my life forever. we laughed, we cried, we protected that progressive home & auto bundle day and night. we were all of us dazzling... like knights sworn to protect our kingdom. we knew it wouldn't last forever, but... that's what made it special -- you know we'll be back tomorrow, right? yeah, but it'll never be today again. -[ groaning ] -just get on the bus, flo! >> harris: no shortage of criticism on the crisis at the southern border, president biden is getting praise from people on the other side. his mexican counterpart applauded the president for not building a wall.
9:27 am
>> president biden, you are the first president of the united states in a very long time that has not built not even 1 meter wall. and sat we thank you for that, sir. >> harris: even though he didn't take the time to meet with him during his three hour border pit stop in texas earlier this week on sunday, illegal immigrants trying to come into the country had this message for the president. >> president biden for giving us this opportunity. we come from a country that is really poor and we are looking for work. >> harris: our hearts go out to anybody who wants to come here, we get it. we are the best on the planet, we understand that. and they call them illegal people trying to enter because they are not going to check points. they are still hanging out in the gaps of the wall and they are saying thanks to
9:28 am
president biden. who is providing those shorts? >> raymond: those are the activists on the other side of the border like the church run in some cases and look, we have to admit this they get a lot of money from the federal government handling these migrants commanded united states and give them their travel papers we transport them i've spent a lot of time tracking this. three years come up close this is such a human tragedy but it's one we are creating. the biden administration is facilitating one of the biggest human trafficking racket in perhaps history 4.9 million illegal immigrants flooding across the border released into the country under president obama, okay? 3 million people were turned away or detained. >> harris: to porter and chief he didn't like that name. >> raymond: no he didn't but biden has totally reverse those
9:29 am
policies, to the detriment of the security of the border and the integrity of the country and to incentivize them to come in this way. >> harris: carli, two things this week coming to do with women. senator marshall brought to light blackburn from the great state of tennessee took an all-female delegation down there to take a look at the issue of sex trafficking. tom homan, former acting ice director was on with me last hour and said 37% of women who are traffic across the border by cartels are sexually assaulted. women and children at the end of this it is this tragedy and this the bane of our existence as america we have to fix it. >> carley: without question and one of the sound bites kevin mccarthy kept repeating that i don't think out enough attention was his last border for a. it is horrific to repeat. what he saw at the hands of an mexican drug cartel was a woman that had been hanged. her feet were cut off and she
9:30 am
was mutilated. this is the reality of the situation appeared i was talking to bill melugin last though mike yesterday he said a lot of what he sees he can't report because it's old also groups a. he told me stories and he was right. we have a sound bite of the mexican president thanking joe biden for not building an inch of the border wall which package that up and put it in a republican campaign ad for 2024, we have an illegal immigrant thanking them but the only piece missing is the drug cartels that would also be thinking president biden for the open borders because there is a record number of of course drugs and human trafficking flowing into our country right now and they are making millions and millions of dollars off of these policies. >> harris: kennedy? >> kennedy: they are and the vice president which talks about the root causes of immigration never talks about the failed war on drugs. that's what has happened, a lot of these governments have been hollowed out by narco terrorists who have assumed power and any money they make just goes back
9:31 am
into the cartels. and that is how the government and the cartels serve as one another, the united states is now party to that. you look at the people who want to come over and work, that is not a silent. this is complete we different. but if we need people in this country to help companies and to help businesses with some of the labor gaps, then they need to fix the visa system. and congress is skipping summary steps by saying we are going straight to amnesty. you can't grant citizenship, you have to start from square one. it's like pete buttigieg want to be president, he's arty feeling a transportation secretary we have to move several steps back and just start with visas and what we need. that would be much more humane. >> harris: tom homan acting ice director under trump told me we have to start with border security because we don't have enough people to start even that situation. really we can't process any more. no matter what we are processing.
9:32 am
>> kennedy: we have to fix so simultaneously. that's where i would start. >> emily: that's where this administration was asking for from the state department and u.s. air marshals to come help process. put food in the fridge and clean out the refrigerators and the like. this is abjectly humiliating as a fellow american to see my president, the commander in chief who can't remember who is president to decide to lay over in el paso on his way to mexico city where he was also reprimanded for being forgetful and chided i think that was tongue-in-cheek frankly by the way i thought that was absolutely sarcastic of president obrador to be like you're the only one who hasn't put a meter on the wall in i can't remember when exactly because this is the first president to put america so dead last. meanwhile el paso you talked about funding how the federal government has been funding all of these ngos and nonprofits that's beautiful but do you know who needs funding? el paso. and the state of texas didn't have enough extra resources to help them out. neither did the federal
9:33 am
government apparently. this town that sees more illegal immigrants flood through then their own population, that is drowning in a lack of resources mixed with the flood controlled by the narco cartels under an administration that refuses to acknowledge because by the way they have used up all their hyperbolic words for president trump. what would they call the brutal cartel dictators if they've already used those words for president trump, right? is the biggest monster on the planet so what's left to actually name the names of the monsters that are holding everyone hostage at that southern border and all of america is affected? >> harris: democratic mayor in el paso asking for all of that money. >> emily: he declared a disaster declaration he tried desperately. >> harris: do you know what the presidencies? forensically cleaned up. >> emily: a sanitized view. >> raymond: while bits of the wall are stacked. >> harris: rusting and the weather. next weight loss surgery for children as young as 13 the

>> kennedy: put your seat belt on if it will fit nearly 15 million american children are obese. that number is just climbing. and of the expert solution? no, not diet or exercise, that's too much work. instead it is pills and surgery. and to make sure you start them young the american academy of pediatrics recommends obese teens take weight loss drugs and to do stomach staple surgeries to treat the conditions. both of those things have very serious physical side effects, cbs reporting on the guideline saying "children struggling with obesity should be evaluated and treated early and aggressively including with dedications for kids as young as 12 and surgery for those as young as 13. surgery. in general doctors should offer adolescents 12 and older who have obesity access to
9:39 am
appropriate drugs and teens of 13 and older with severe obesity referrals for weight loss surgery, those situations may vary. these medical experts want our kids to undergo going under the knife rather before they hit puberty, but laura ingraham says it's the push to normalize obesity that is fueling the problem, watch. >> while encouraging kindness is one thing, glamorizing obesity with its many health risks is quite another. but that it's exactly what is happening in this inclusively cold. they are normalizing something we should be strongly discouraging. because you weren't born with high bmi, you arrived at high bmi. the more overweight we are the greater the chance we will develop diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. but the popular culture says stop the shaming, start the selling. >> kennedy: it certainly is a very lucrative industry. so surgeons are the ones who will benefit the most from this.
9:40 am
i worry about the kids and some of the side effects from these treatments. >> harris: when you mentioned the ages and the hormones that are happening between 12 and 15, it is problematic because some of that overeating and some of that emotional maturity comes from reaching puberty and learning how to regulate yourself. that is part of growing up. if we would just start from love, and i know people will say that is so cliche, i don't care. start from love. if you love a child you teach that child you raise that child to know when enough is enough. and to know how their body feels when they are full. if they are having a problem, lean in. if you need to get therapy for that child, but when you start cutting and drugging children you have put on your sweatpants and given. you, personally, as a parent, as an adult in our country. then we are building a whole cottage industry of cutting and drugging our children. it doesn't feel like love. >> carley: i'm sorry but that sounds like way too young and it
9:41 am
we have to take it several steps back. personal accountability personal responsibility doesn't mean it's your fault. we are all born with genetics, we have no control over them, but there are things in the choices we make that certainly influence that. >> raymond: you are both mothers, one is about to be a mother here, this is an important part of parenthood as you were talking about, harris. teaching a child self control. look, i was a chunky kid in new orleans there were a lot of things to make you chunky. guess what? you can't eat all of them. you have to know when to stop. part of that, laura is right here. let's start, i know we don't want shaming, but we can't move to selling. selling these products which is what they are, stabling children's stomachs? this is barbaric. just teach them self control. the other thing we are already dealing with when you have massive portions, okay? when you are downing two big gulps you will get a big gut. that's the idea.
9:42 am
or the maxi, venti it leads to consequent this. we have to teach self-control and if we are moving to the draconian outcome of surgery for children, we should look at the industry pushing things on them particularly unhealthy lifestyles. >> kennedy: some of the messages we are getting, why is exercise being demonized? just a couple of weeks ago we were talking about the article where the author said exercise actually has its roots in white supremacy so exercise is racist, was the conclusion that no one should exercise? is inherently evil? is one of things that get to bmi down, helps regulate your blood sugar, and helps you sleep better and staves off things like diabetes, depression, and heart disease. >> emily: but she was part of the woke mob that says everything is racist, everything is rooted in white the primacy and we should just simply forgive and applaud all types of
9:43 am
aberrations, frankly. i see this is a two-pronged issue one of which is a culture of overconsumption where you get the venti in the big gulp and everything is supersized and then we see deeper roots going further back in the pharmaceutical industry because everything in our country has really rewarded medications and over medications. instead of saying you can prevent obesity and diabetes and lots of types of cancer if you don't smoke and if you eat well and eat greens and exercise, if you start in the beginning and have these preventative prophylactic measures then you won't need to spend thousands and thousands of surgeries and medications and the like. that is not with the culture has been built on. thing about the current demo commercials, everything is for types of drugs you should ask yr doctor about. maybe you didn't need them in the first place if you walked around the block once a day. this dovetails with that we are supposed to account for the fact
9:44 am
our kids are living in a food desert so their only options are super unhealthy at 7-eleven or whatever, and then we will fix it surgically and with medication rather than nipping it in the bud providing fresh healthy food in lower served areas. >> kennedy: speaking of moms we do nip it in the bud by having good eating habits when you are gestating. >> carley: so i have read. >> kennedy: laying the foundation. >> carley: it enforced. >> kennedy: you can't unring the bell, you can always hit the reset button and learn more going forward. >> carley: when it comes to weight loss we are trying to complicate a noncollocated issue. we don't need to re-examine how to lose weight. we already know what works. it simple. it is diet and exercise. it's more difficult for some people than others. but i think there are two negative messages happening. they go on the exact opposite direction. on the one hand we are talking about pills, diet pills and surgery for 12 and 13-year-olds. that it's cool. and on the other hand there is a
9:45 am
message that obesity is something that should be celebrated and i want everyone to feel comfortable and beautiful in their own skin, but there is a difference between how you look on the outside and what is going on on the inside of your body. health is so, so important as well. i remember when adele lost weight and people were genuinely disappointed in her and said she shouldn't have felt pressured to meet societal norms as opposed to saying this is amazing. she had a goal she wanted to lose, great, she looks fantastic right now. i think there is a lot of odd messaging when it comes to weight loss. >> kennedy: eating a lot of green apples. don't necessarily have to go that far. don't start cutting into kids. so much for american pride a new poll reveals, an alarming amount of gen z-ers are not proud to live in the united states. where else have you been, hotshots? ng with liberty mutual. they customize your car insurance... so you only pay for what you need!

the origin story here is racism and hatred and division and religious propaganda and bigotry. if that is what you believe, you do learn to hate it but i am stunned when you read these interviews with some of these kids who say you know i hate the country. i wish you were born somewhere else. sweetheart, i will give you a fast pass to the ching jank province of china and see how you like it or an all expense paid trip to cuba. in it so much fun. i've been to these places. they are horrible pits of humanity where you can't even speak freely or move freely. we have everything here and i don't think we spent enough time giving thanks and realizing as harris said the patriots among us that make this country go, my father was in the marines and came from a foreign country, he is the greatest patriot i've ever seen. >> god bless him. >> raymond: he knows the cost in the alternative. >> carley: what do you think? >> emily: the reason i went to law school in college i went around the world studying and i

made that decision that the way for me to affect change in the world was to be able to utilize all of these afforded me in this country. in part that respect for all of the freedoms afforded me here especially in the realm of education was because i was raised in a home where from start to finish it was with patriotism and an appreciation of this country. you know i said before my grandfather probably hung his u.s. certificate or citizenship certificate on the wall every day of his life and he never even spoke english, but he was so proud to have become a u.s. citizen. that's a household i was raised in. i think what's being lost on this generation is the notion you can be proud of your country and proud to be an american while also speaking up and levying criticism and seeing and acknowledging issues and working for change. it seems to me gen z is one or another, right? here or the highway and they all chose the highway. >> carley: so true and some big concerns our military
